Collaboration – working with others to achieve an outcome.

In Mediation that can mean you, your former partner and a #mediator working together to try to resolve your differences. With #mediation you can elect to bring a support person with you. You can also elect to have #Solicitor Assisted Mediation (SAM), where both parties have solicitors present so any legal questions can be resolved during the mediation

In Collaborative Law in can mean you, your former partner, your solicitors, a mental health expert (psychologist), and a financial expert all coming together to try and resolve your differences.
